Top 5 Beauty Cupboard Basics...

What are your beauty cupboard basics? You know, those items
you religiously use, take for granted, don’t really spend a fortune on, the
basic...

I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I have a few
staples that aren’t anything fancy but if I were told they were no longer
available, there would be real issues and tissues! So here are my 5 basic
needed/can't live without items. I would love you to leave a message in the
comment box with what your top 5 are!

1. Sure Deodorant. I’ve been using this stuff for years, and
before I came across it I tried many different sprays, roll on's and creams.
All of which left the fabulous white stained look across my tops, smelt gross
or didn’t actually do the job. I’m not like a horrendously sweaty Betty but I
do like to know my deodorant will protect me from the B.O monster! This stuff
leaves me feeling fresh, smelling good and most importantly doesn’t stain! Who would
have thought the quest for perfect deodorant would be so hard to find but I can
assure you it was!

2. E45 Cream. This stuff is essential for my uber sensitive
skin. I use it as a makeup remover by massaging it in to my skin and then
removing the excess with damp cotton wool. It works a treat at removing all the
crap off my face at the end of the day and also leaves it feeling lovely and
soft, bonus! Also since using this, my skin has improved so much, with not so
many spots and my eczema is less noticeable.

3. Bic Twin Lady Razors. I’m too much of a wimp to wax so I
have to come clean and say I shave my legs. Some razors are cheap and nasty and
seem to like to shred your legs, whilst I’ve found some of the more expensive
ranges don’t seem to do such a close shave and leave you feeling like a bloke
with a 5 o’clock shadow. So these are fab as they are cheap, removes hair
nicely leaving you with lovely smooth pins and for bonus points they come in
pretty girly colours.

4. Sudocrem. I swear by this stuff if you’re having a break
out! It really helps to soothe and reduce redness of spots. I layer it on
before going to bed, just be careful as it can stain your pillow!

5. Original Source Lime Shower Gel. I love this product! I use
it every morning when I have a shower. It smells so good and really wakes me
up! It’s yummy!
